Italians no longer have to do shyt like punching each other in the face for a living so you see less of them. I think it was Martin who had a joke about the lower you are on the social ladder, the better boxer you are. He said, that's why Cubans are the best, then Ricans, Mexicans, blacks, etc. His words, not mine.
Tried to find it but only found this, which is pretty funny;

That actually makes a lot of sense. No one wants to box for a living unless they absolutely have to, or they're born into it.Italians no longer have to do shyt like punching each other in the face for a living so you see less of them.

It's all about football/soccer, but still can't and have never produced any quality players??? Nah, generally speaking Italian American's don't give a damn about football/soccer. Mostly the older generation and Italian Americans that were born in Italy.Comment
